Results America

As JLo has said, it is America's choice. And this year is the toughest ever. There are at least 6 contestants who are so talented, but they are not all competing in the same genre. So in normal world, they would not have to compete against each other. They would have different radio stations, itunes categories, music video channels, etc.

Really , Scotty and Lauren sing country together? Again? One of my favorite Lady A songs. Lauren was natural, Scotty seemed awkward. I spent a night this weekend singing this song like crazy so I understand exactly what they are doing. Oh Simon Fuller, if I meet you I will tell you exactly how smart I think you are. America is made up of country fans and you know it. So smart. I am now convinced that Lauren and Scotty are the top vote getters this season. I know it because I know Simon knows it.

Okay, but my point was that Idol is trying to show that all genres count. But in showcasing Lauren and Scotty that way, they also know who makes the show a success. Country fans.

Yes, we celebrate all, but country, we also cater to you. Let me explain what makes country fans relevant. Country is about the voice. Not a beat hiding a voice, no auto tune, no electric guitar even. So if you love country, you aqppreciate voice, and therefore, you appreciate Idol.

Ford Zombie nonsense.

Hayley and Casey, the couple supposedly sing Moaning. WOW what a great pairing. If Hayley survives tonight, she is now in a magical place because the pairing of the two of them is phenomenal. WOW WOW WOW. Fantastic. Standing O from the judges. They loved it. I loved it. I loved her. I want them to get married and live happily ever after too.

What? Ryan gives them results right away. Casey, Hayley, Scotty and Lauren on the stage. Scotty is safe, Lauren is safe, Casey is safe, Hayley is bottom 3. Makes sense from last night. Okay. OMG I can't wait for you all to hear this song from Kelly and Jason Aldean. It is awesome.

Can I ask any of my fellow country fans something? I love country. Old, new, classic, fusion. Do you like Scotty? If you know what George Strait and Josh Turner and Randy Travis sound like, is he enough for you? Is he not an also ran? Please give me your comments.

Rob Reiner gave a speech to the contestants about acting. Funny bit.

Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson. He is a huge star in country. Her voice is beyond. She can sing anything, but please god let her accept the help of a stylist. I listen to all of her albums all of the time. This song has been number one on the country charts for weeks. God I love country music. Cute bit with Ryan reminding all of Kelly's love for Casey.

Preview of Cowboys and Aliens. No idea what this movie is, but it stars Daniel Craig, Olivia Wilde, Harrison Ford, directed by Jon Favreau of Iron Man. OK, works for me.

Jacob, Paul, Stefano and James sing the Song of Silence. 2 of them are in the bottom 2. Paul and Stefano ideally. Paul, why did you ever wear those kitschy suits? You could have won me over. But now I want you to go home.

Results, James is safe, Stefano is in the bottom 3, Paul is in the bottom 3 and Jacobs is safe. Perfect results so far. Paul, Stefano and Hayley in bottom 3. Paul or Stefano should go for me.

Rihanna is up singing the song she sang with Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland at the ACM's. California King Bed is a fantastic song. She sings it so well. Breaks my heart this song.

Ummm but no Ronald McDonald hair with a nude colored dress, thanks.

Results. Since the top 13, only girls have left this season. WOW, I did not realize that. Hayley is safe. Paul is going home, Stefano is safe. No shock. He is fun, but it is his time to go. He is now a known name. Paul McDonald. He sings Maggie May as his swan song.

All is good in Idol world.

Don't be ashamed of your obsessions...but everyone should be obsessed with Kelly Clarkson's voice.
